However, start training at an early age, and their amenable, as well as people-oriented, makes them <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmoo.com\/dogs\/how-to-train-your-dog\/\">easier to train<\/a> than many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmoo.com\/dogs\/terrier-dogs\/\">other terriers<\/a> and dogs in general.<\/p>\n<p>Affenpinschers tend to be of above-average intelligence, but they are not among the whiz kids of the canine world. They are compliant and hardly ever stubborn. They are almost always willing to give a try to please their owners.<\/p>\n<p>However, they do have a training limit. Practice with your Affie what you have just taught him. And, once the basics are over, introduce the leash training in a safe, fenced-in location like your backyard or apartment courtyard.<\/p>\n<p>You have to socialize an Affie from puppyhood as they are naturally suspicious of strangers. He is capable of soaking up everything you can teach even at eight weeks old.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t delay to start your training more than 6 months or else, you will have a more headstrong dog to deal with. Preferably, introduce him into dog obedience class when he is around 3-4 months old, and socialize.<\/p>\n<p>An Affen\u2019s courage extends to carelessness about his physical safety. He is known to climb fences to sit on the top rail for a better view or jump off high furniture.<\/p>\n<p>Provide steps and teach him to get on and off furniture safely. The Affen loves his people, but he can be stubborn in his desire to have his own way. He\u2019s also highly intelligent, and his thought processes can astound you.<\/p>\n<p>Those traits can mean that the Affen is challenging but rewarding to train. Be firm, consistent, and patient with him and your training will be successful.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-12 ttg-gen-topten-item\">\n<div class=\"row ttg-gen-topten-detailsection\">\n<div class=\"col-md-8 ttg-gen-topten-itemimg\">\n                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.petmoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/toptengamaimages\/affenpinscher\/affenpinscher-care.jpg\" class=\"image-link ttg-zoom-image\"><br \/>\n                    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" class=\"img-responsive center-block\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petmoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/toptengamaimages\/affenpinscher\/affenpinscher-care.jpg\" alt=\"affenpinscher-care\"\/><br \/>\n                  <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-8 ttg-gen-topten-itemoverview\">\n<p>Affenpinschers are a lively and energetic breed that requires regular exercise to keep them physically and mentally stimulated.
